I have one of the original Kimber Model 82's in 22LR. It has a 4-digit serial number without any lettering prefix.

I purchased this rifle new in 1981 upon completion of graduate school. It will put bullet on top of bullet at 25 yards with either Eley or Winchester Super-X ammo. It looks like new as it has been properly stored for years, but, unfortunately, never used. I bought it for a squireel gun but just can't take it to the woods - it's too pretty. My Remington 581 does just fine as a squirrel gun, so I have never hunted with the Kimber. I haven't heard of the variety you have, but will check my Kimber paperwork.

I have brochures and parts lists from 1981. I'd be happy to copy them and mail them to you if you forward a mailing address. Not sure it will help, but I kept a file on the Kimber. I've owned three Kimber M82s and still have two of them. My first was from the initial production run and it was both beautiful and accurate. Unfortunately the bolt release was integral with the trigger.

I finally traded it when I got tired of being hit in the chin when cycling the bolt. Currently my M82.22 Hornet (3 digit serial number) standard field model is splendid as a true sub moa shooter.

It is a 'Classic Model Custom.45 ACP', every part was hand selected, fit, tuned and finished in Clackamas. Bibliya korolya iakova na russkom chitatj.

The M82.22LR in my stable is the 'Custom Classic' version with ebony fore end tip, fancy sling swivel studs, deluxe checkering, etc. This CC was acquired not long after I traded the first Kimber and the bolt release problem had been addressed.

The CC will put 5 shots in one tiny hole at 50 yards; I've never fired it at 100yds. It has fired thousands of rounds, taken a bunch of squirrels and looked good in my rack. Any Kimber is a quality product and worth more than its retail cost.

I recently traded for a Kimber of Oregon model 82 rifle with the B serial number. I thought the rifle was valued at around $700-$800 but the little info i have found shows the B serial number is worth a lot more. The rifle is unfired and has no dings or dents in the stock. It has a blued steeled butplate and the sling attachments are inleted in the stock. I am new to Kimbers but the one i found on Gumbroker was selling for around $3000. Is there something i am missing. Thanks in advance.
